Fitting new springs/shocks?

[Guy]

Anyone done either job themselves? Is it a massive job for a reasonably competent home mechanic? TIA . This is what the ESM says:

2. Remove cowl top cover. Refer to EI-11, "COWL TOP" .

sounds about right. if your separating the springs and shocks you'll want spring compressors mind. its fairly straight forward
